Hotel For Dogs (U)

Andi and her younger brother Bruce has passed from one foster home to the next, eventually landing up at the apartment of musicians Carl and Lois Scudder, who care more about rehearsals than feeding and clothing two brats. So Andi and Bruce learn to take care of themselves, concealing a Jack Russell terrier which they have adopted and named Friday from the Scudders. During an altercation with local police, the siblings seek shelter in an abandoned hotel, which turns out to be home for two stray dogs. Friday makes friends with the homeless hounds and Andi and Bruce hit upon a novel idea: to employ the boy’s knack for genius inventions to transform the disused building into the perfect sanctuary for all stray dogs in the city.
